This equipment operates at AC380V and 0.4–0.7MPa compressed air, requiring proper grounding and pressure relief. The machine contains moving parts and handles cylindrical battery cells, presenting risks of electrical shock, pneumatic injury, and mechanical crushing.
- Electrical Safety: Connect the machine to a grounded AC380V power source with overcurrent protection and a lockout/tagout switch.
- Pneumatic Safety: Install a pressure regulator set to 0.4–0.7MPa with a relief valve to prevent overpressurization and use dry, filtered compressed air.
- Mechanical Safety: Ensure all safety guards are in place and the emergency stop button is functional before operating the machine.
- Cell Handling Precautions: Only insert cylindrical battery cells that are within the specified diameter range of 18–65 mm and ensure they are not damaged or short-circuited.
- Environmental Storage: Store the machine in a dry, clean environment with a temperature range of 10°C to 40°C to prevent moisture condensation and component degradation.
This procedure outlines the safe startup and operation of the grooving machine for cylindrical battery cells. Follow all steps to ensure consistent grooving quality and operator safety.
Required Equipment: Atomfair Automatic Cylindrical Battery Grooving Machine, Cylindrical battery cells (18650, 21700, or 26650), Grooving hob and mold set, PLC touch screen panel
- Inspect Machine
Inspect the machine for any visible damage, loose connections, or foreign objects before connecting power and air supply. - Connect Utilities
Connect the machine to a grounded AC380V power source and supply compressed air at 0.4–0.7MPa with appropriate filtration. - Set Parameters
Set the desired grooving depth and width on the PLC touch screen according to the process requirements for the battery cell type. - Load Cells
Load cylindrical battery cells into the grooving guide fixture, ensuring they are properly aligned and not overcrowded. - Start Machine
Close all safety guards, press the start button, and allow the machine to automatically feed cells through the grooving cycle. - Monitor Operation
Monitor the first cycle for smooth operation, observing grooving concentricity and verifying dimensions with a gauge. - Stop and Unload
Stop the machine after completing the batch, remove the grooved cells, and inspect the hob for wear or damage.
Does the grooving machine's production rate vary when processing different cell sizes such as 18650 vs 26650?
No, the automatic feeding and grooving cycle is independent of cell size because mold change only alters the fixture geometry, not the mechanical cycle speed. The production efficiency remains 30–40 pcs/min for all supported cylindrical formats, including 18650, 21700, and 26650.
Can the Atomfair CGG742 groove cells larger than 26650 without modification?
The standard machine supports 18650, 21700, and 26650 via its changeable mold system. Cells larger than 26650 would require custom mold tooling, as the feeding guide and fixture are dimension-specific to those formats.
What infrastructure is required to operate the Atomfair CGG742 grooving machine?
The machine requires a single- or three-phase AC380V power supply at 0.65 kW and a compressed air source delivering 0.4–0.7 MPa. No additional cooling or exhaust is necessary; its compact 620×520×1200 mm footprint allows bench-top installation.
The Atomfair Automatic Cylindrical Battery Grooving Machine delivers automated high-precision grooving for 18650, 21700, 26650 and other cylindrical cell formats via mold change, with a production rate of 30–40 pcs/min and grooving concentricity of 0.05 mm, but requires compressed air supply at 0.4–0.7 MPa and mold/hob replacement for size or depth adjustments.
Positive
- Automated feeding and high efficiency: Automatic feeding and discharging with a production efficiency of 30–40 pcs/min reduces manual labor and cycle time, delivering consistent throughput for high-volume cylindrical battery processing.
- Adjustable grooving with high precision: Grooving depth (1–1.7 mm) and width (1.0–2 mm) are adjustable, achieving a concentricity of 0.05 mm, ensuring stable dimensional accuracy across production runs.
Trade-offs
- Mold and hob change required: Compatibility with different battery models (18650, 21700, 26650) requires physical mold replacement, and altering grooving depth or width necessitates hob mold change, adding downtime and tooling inventory.
- Compressed air infrastructure needed: Operation requires a compressed air supply at 0.4–0.7 MPa (4–7 bar), mandating an external air compressor and associated pneumatic conditioning equipment in the lab or production floor.
